Hey Carzetta,
You did a beautiful job on your chart :) it's very well laid out I liked how you said " For accountability, the teaching staffs will be assessed before and after the semester to ensure the Accreditation standards are met." like (Diamond, 2008 p.16) said in years past , an institution could simply dust off its previous documents, make a few modest modifications, and be finished, but this is simply no longer possible. im glad you will be reviewing staff and faculty consistently to make sure they are meeting the accreditation standards excellent post.
Hello Carzetta,
How are you? I think you did a good job on this post.
My feedback:
Clarification: Is the information practical? Does it make sense?
The information is practical. The table is perfect, it is organized and easy to read. But, I find the Outcome section unclear. Also, there was no reference section.
Justification: Does the entry include adequate details to justify the direction being taken?
The entry in the outcome section does not include details to justify the direction being taken. The outcome should be based on, as the University Office of Evaluation and Educational Effectiveness (n. d.). stresses that there are going to be questions to answer upon graduation. What the graduates know and are able to do at the time they have completed the program?” What is going to happen at the end of the program?
Rationale: Have sufficient references been included to support the direction being adopted?
No, there are no references to support the direction being adopted.
Relevance: Do you have (or have you heard of) similar experiences that you can share?
Your program really hit home for me! Meaning that, I took numerous classes in your curriculum while waiting to be accepted into the nursing program. Long story short, as we, my classmates and I got to the folk in the road, some went into Biomedical science program and natural sciences program while, I chose education.
Recommendations: Do you have suggestions or advice that you can share?
There are two areas that is in need of assistance. The Outcome section and the reference section:
Firstly, the Outcome section, as the University Office of Evaluation and Educational Effectiveness (n. d.) states, that program outcomes are attainment, skills, and competencies students should acquire upon graduation from your program in Biomedical Science.
Secondly, I think your report needs one or two references, which will add some credibility to your project.
Again, I think you did a great job with the table, all it needs is a little help in the areas in the recommendation section.
Thanks for sharing,
Hello Carzetta
I really liked reading about your program outcomes and list of courses. However I was wondering what are your program outcomes? You supplied great information on what a program outcome was and why it is needed which was very informational and helped grow my knowledge and understanding but I did not see your outcomes listed.

courses. However I was wondering what are your program
outcomes? You supplied great information on what a program
outcome was and why it is needed which was very informational
and helped grow my knowledge and understanding but I did not
see your outcomes listed.
The courses that you listed are very detailed and even give the
year that the courses will be taken in this is really good
information and a very detailed course description. Great job.
In all the degree program sounds like an interested program and
I am looking forward to your response to my questions. The
only thing I recommend is putting in the program outcomes.

3. Program Outcome
Program Outcome Comment by Jeff: Should be centered.
Student learning program is a strategic measure used by
Aaccreditation Ccommission of particular learning institution to
determine the significance of structured learning program for
the benefit of students. The program provides the so called ‘end
result’ of the whole learning period in regard to the expectation
of the student. According Mika (2009), every lesion and the
ultimate grade acquired in the study should have a typical
concept of expected results and a significant importance in the
life of the student. There a two types of student learning
outcomes: Direct measures and indirect measure Comment by
Jeff: Each new paragraph should be indented. Comment by Jeff:
? Comment by Jeff: Where is your list of proposed program
outcomes? They seem to be missing.
The direct measures includes the Iimplementation of the
program whereby the learning structure accredited by the
commission is enforced with proper evaluation and a specific
time limit. After the implementation, there is are the indirect
identification measures where the program is assessed in regard
to the expectation of the course fulfilment and the job
requirements in the world market. The third stage involves
indirect measures which are the literal strategies to be achieved
before the completion of the program. At the end of the
program, you need to collect and asses the result to ascertain
the magnitude of effort and implication in the job market. The
result will lead you the dissemination and the reflection on the
result to lay a baseline of association and incorporation in the
society. Finally, one is expected to think of program adjustment
and improvement to make it better. Comment by Jeff: This
paragraph should include citations to the source where the
material originated from.

Discussion
The program will be accredited by the Institute of Biomedical
Science in regard to Higher Educations Board. Since the
program is not online based, there will be no online policies to
govern the operation of the program. The academic standards of
the curriculum will be determined by the credibility of the
teaching staff and implementation of the program. The program
outcome will be focused in research and innovation. For
accountability, the teaching staffs will be assessed before and
after the semester to ensure the Accreditation standards are met.

Hello Carzetta,
Thank you for your timely submission of this installment of
your course project. In the first week of the term, you declared
a program that you would propose as the Dean of a higher
learning institution that has allowed you to work through a
series of steps toward authoring a new program proposal.
For some, the abstract nature of this assignment might seem
somewhat out of character. After all, how can someone that
might have little or no experience in authoring a new program
proposal actually learn by moving through the steps? Well, it is
because we had guidance from our text and related resources
that helped to guide us through the approach. We also had the
benefit of a Social Media area within the class that allowed us
to see how our classmates were working through the process,
and we shared in the learning experience through our own posts.
This is, by the way, very similar to what we encounter in our
work – a problem-based situation where something needs to be
done, and the response is to gather detail on best practices and
work through the process with available guidance from others.
Using the assigned scoring rubric as a guide, the following
comments are offered in response to my appraisal of your
8. submission:
Program Outcomes: I found that your submission included
some content for both of the elements called for in the
assignment, as referenced in the instructions and corresponding
rubric. I believe that your proposed program for Biomedical
Science might be appropriate for this exercise.
List of Courses: For this part of your proposal, you were to
create a chart or table that listed the individual courses and
offered added detail such as a course identifier and credit hrs.
What courses that were to be included was left entirely up to
you, but they should correspond tightly with the variables about
the program that you have defined in previous installments in
relation to established industry standards. I found that your
response addressed and applied some of these expectations, but
the table that you constructed was not complete.
Spelling, Grammar & APA Style: Applying proper APA
stylistics in your graduate work is a valued outcome, and so this
is a good opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of this
literary skill. Your paper did not adhere to APA stylistics, and
I encourage you to work with the KU Writing Center to address
this expectation.
Total Score: 75/100 points
Thank you for your effort in completing this assignment. If you
have any questions regarding this appraisal, or any other aspect
of the course, you are most welcome to contact me.
Best,
Jeff
